Circumscribing police scrutiny and investigations into the six mobile phones seized by Police in the office of prime suspect Navin Ramgooloam is like circumscribing press reports, analyses and opinions as a preventative measure based on mere allegations of what could happen, if.

Justice Rita Teelock sitting in Chambers has refused an interlocutory writ of injunction to the former Prime Minister, Dr Navinchandra Ramgoolam to be issued restraining and prohibiting the Police from having indiscriminate access to his six mobile phones and/or copying or otherwise storing data contained in the internal memory or memory cards of the mobile phones other than those relevant to the investigation.

The December 10th elections resulted in a series of setbacks, humiliation and lesson learning for the Ptr/MMM alliance in general and for its two leaders in particular with Ramgoolam losing his long held seat at No 5 and Bérenger almost losing his equally long held seat at No 19.

Even though, by and large, former PM Navin Ramgoolam and his ally Paul Bérenger in their PTr-MMM alliance copied chunks from the MSM-PMSD-ML manifesto and, were it merely for electoral promises, both alliances should have fared equally at the 10th December 2014 general elections, the manner in which the 75% turnout (or thereabout) of voters cast their votes indicates that Mauritians generally could not stand the shenanigans, the arrogance, the incompetence of both Ramgoolam and Bérenger and their sheer hunger for power through elective dictatorship.

If Bérenger becomes Prime Minister for five years and Ramgoolam President of the second Republic for seven years, we shall be definitely be in the full blast of dictatorship. Our country will be worse than Zimbabwe. This would be a great miscalculation and mistakes of voters to contemplate having Mauritius as second republic. So is that what we, as population of this country, want for our families and country?
